I keep thinking about this now...but gekkagumi really have extreme sleeping patterns: Hisoka sleeps too much, while August and Chikage sleep too little.

Fun fact - being sleep deprived makes you more alert

Thus a headcanon (?) was born~

The Organisation wants their members to be on their highest levels of awareness, so what better way to make sure they all are sleep deprived by training them as they are recruited to sleep less. But the Org didn’t expect their agents to end up with extremes, but now that those have been developed, ‘its not my problem’ is at play. Add in the fact of possible PTSD, and that pretty much sums up the whole issue.

Also, Hisoka is just a huge anomaly in their data, so the Org used to keep an eye on his conditions due to this. 

Either way...Hisoka was very aware of his brothers’ habits, so if one of them is in desperate need of a nap, Hisohiso would come and nap with them. I just think he’d do this, but not say anything about it. None of them ever spoke about it, an unspoken rule, but all were grateful for those moments.

Chikage “Charlatan” Utsuki

He is someone where people cannot figure out if he’s lying or not

But has anyone stopped to think why he’s so good at it? Why he started the habit? When did it start?

So yeah I came up with a possible solution 

TW for emotional/child abuse

It is implied that Chikage had a bad relationship with his mother in Awakening Moon. Single parent huh? What if the other parent was a liar? So his mother continuously treated Chikage as a ‘liar’, causing it to be a self-fulfilling prophecy. So that’s where the lying started, so Chikage could get a breather from his emotionally abusive mother. Its not immoral for him...Its a means of survival!

Then it was amplified. At the Org. To protect his family (August and Hisoka), Chikage would have to lie in order to make sure they don’t get hurt. He had to lie and make it believable. He’s already had practice, so his lying skills become even sharper when he’s in the Org. And since he has to hide the real Chikage in the Org when on missions, it becomes a habit, which is ingrained into his daily life. Once again, a means of survival!

So when he joins Mankai, he’s had YEARS of experience, its a no-brainer that he’s a top tier liar. Its not a means of survival anymore, but it is very hard to stop lying and covering everything he says with deceit. Its like a fun game of sorts now, as he keeps up his wall but also remains close in a sense.

Oh, and since he’s fulfilled the prophecy, there must be some kind of internal conflict caused by his mother’s words. Wouldn’t he be in pain now that he knows he’s like that ‘awful parent who left him...left them’, causing Chikage to close himself off even more.

I don’t know what I’m writing anymore...but here you go, a possible reason why Chikage lies/possible Chikage backstory (liber when?!)

I don’t know if there’s more...but its 2.30 and I think I should get some sleep ^^;;

Random new thought for a headcanon...But what if:

August lived in an orphanage before being taken in by the Organisation

They’d scouted him for his scientific capabilities 

The fact that August always yearned for a happy family was always denied one

So he decided to take in April and December in order to form one

There are more ideas but they’re so incoherent...I’ll probably be compiling them into a little fic soon

[tappdancing]

Just had the thought today...but:

Hisoka vibes are really shown in Donut Hole

Like how he was trying to remember his gekkabros in Act 1, then finally remembered August while in the unlocking room

Spoilers for harugumi’s 7th play

I’m back with an angsty headcanon for gekka once again. And as usual, its something I realised in a class (this is a reoccurring pattern...)

In the play, Chikage’s character is called Peten Uso. While the name’s etymology is explained here, it debunked one idea, but I had another as well

The class I had this thought in was Chemistry and I won’t be explaining much... But there’s this hydrocarbon (a compound made of hydrogen and carbon only) called Pentene, which is from the alkene family. Pentene...

Remember August makes concoctions of sorts...That lead me to the thought that August is quite good at chemistry and would’ve studied it

So my debunked idea was that Tsuzuru put the name as a reference to the chemistry term. I wanted to check before making assumptions, so I asked. So yeah, this is debunked

But what isn’t is this:

We’re never actually told what language gekkagumi speak, as it states (if I recall correctly) that they had to learn Japanese. So what if the gekka brothers spoke in English? Plausible. Then there’s the possibility of August being a chemist of sorts, so what if August has mentioned pentene and other chemistry terms and Chikage and Hisoka remember them.

So we have Chikage named as Peten in this play, which sounds an awful lot like pentene.

Chikage is reminded by the character’s name of his fun times with his two brothers. We haven’t seen Chika have any closure yet, so wouldn’t the name hurt a little? Cause reminiscing? It would definitely cause a downwards spiral of hurt as he remembers all those times. 

So in conclusion my headcanon is: Chikage’s character name in Magician’s Pure Love causes Chikage a lot of bittersweet thoughts

Not sure if this is all clear, so feel free to drop a question in my ask about my headcanon or the science terms (if you’re curious) ^^

A3! Harugumi’s 7th play spoilers

My theory was debunked, but not exactly...I’ll throw out a headcanon later about it (I blame my chemistry lessons for my current gekka feels)

For now I’ll just say that I’m really thinking that August/Misha is quite proficient in chemistry and that April/Chikage and December/Hisoka have a lot of (vague) knowledge on the subject...

Oh, and this isn’t an April fools joke, I’ve played enough today ^v^’

[tappdancing]

I had an explanation about how gekkagumi are quite similar to Macbeth’s story-

Let me rack my brain and maybe I’ll find it under all the jokes about catfish and proms-

[tappdancing]

I still can’t figure out what kind of chemistry August specialises in

I feel like this will be an unanswered question for a long time...

Anyone have any ideas?
